Obama’s Contempt For Our Allies

From The Asahi Shimbun, Yoshihiro Makino reporting, we learn [tip of the fedora to the Drudge Report][worth quoting in full]:

Senior U.S. administration officials held secret talks in North Korea on at least three occasions in 2011 and 2012, The Asahi Shimbun has learned.

Although the visits had potential implications for Japan, Washington did not inform its security partner at the time and only informally confirmed one of them when the Japanese side pressed, government and other sources in Japan, South Korea and the United States said.

The U.S. State Department even warned the Foreign Ministry against making further inquiries, saying they would harm bilateral relations, the sources said.

U.S. military planes flew from an air base in Guam to Pyongyang and back on April 7, 2012, and again on a longer visit lasting from Aug. 18-20, the sources said.

It is believed that those aboard included Sydney Seiler, director for Korea at the U.S. National Security Council, and Joseph DeTrani, who headed the North Korea desk at the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence. DeTrani left the post in May.

They met with North Korean officials and discussed policies following the death of leader Kim Jong Il in December 2011.

The North Korean delegation included Jang Song Thaek, vice chairman of the National Defense Commission and husband of Kim Jong Il’s sister. Jang is widely considered to serve as a mentor for Kim Jong Un, who succeeded his father as his nation’s leader.

The Japanese government only learned about the flights after receiving reports from hobbyists monitoring activity at military bases and also analyzing air traffic flight plans.

When the Japanese side submitted an official inquiry, U.S. officials expressed frustration that the request had been made, citing the subject’s confidential nature. The State Department warned Japan against inquiring further, saying Washington-Tokyo ties could be damaged.

The third visit that The Asahi Shimbun has confirmed is one that took place in November 2011. Sources said at least one military aircraft from the Guam air base loaded heavy equipment, including bulldozers, at Yokota Air Base in western Tokyo and flew to Pyongyang.

It is believed that the delegation included officials from the U.S. Pacific Command. They met with North Korean officials and discussed efforts to recover the remains of U.S. soldiers killed during the 1950-53 Korean War, the sources said.

When Japan inquired about this visit, U.S. officials unofficially confirmed that it had taken place, the sources said.

Now the Japanese know how Benjamin Netanyahu feels.

I would not want to be one of those allies of The United States who maintains such a relationship at great risk to their security and stability.

Maybe these foreign leaders will finally realize that allying yourself with any Leftist regime is making a deal with the Devil — you never know when it will turn on you. And the Left will turn on you if they believe it necessary to in order to further their radical agenda. In the Leftist’s view, you are permitted to do whatever it takes to achieve the end sought. People and nations do not matter. Their word is not their bond. Their allegiance is to an idea and sacrifices have to be made.

To the Japanese I say: you’re on your own, at the very least, until 20 January 2017 — perhaps for longer.

Please know that there are many Americans who deplore Obama’s actions and thinking.

The list of allies that Obama is dissing is getting longer every day, from Poland, Tawain, Israel, England, France, and even Mexico with the gun running and support of the drug cartels! God bless you Bob. B, this administration is well on it’s way of destroyed this country by way of every means available, from angering our allies to lowering our defenses and way of living, to actually arming our enemies. Treason is what it is but no one will pay the price except the people of this country who are losing everything.

The godly suffered with the ungodly when God allowed the Assyrians and Babylonians to conquer Israel and Judah. I pray God give me the strength and the resourcefulness to mae it through what he is about to allow to come on this country that flaunted His Law and inhibited those who would call for repentance. Serious and sober repentance is all that will save this country, but, based on history of human nature, it ain’t gonna happen.

Get ready, the ride is going to get pretty rough soon.
